[QUOTE="ntsqd, post: 1873547, member: 93138"] I was referring to Hi-Po street car rotor results more than racing rotor results. I can see where I led you astray though, that the articles on the topic were racing oriented. I've never had my street rotors glowing red. Best I've ever done was turn them blue. That was a scary grade. FWIW all barrel blanks start as a casting, [U]all[/U] metal parts blanks do. By the time the barrel maker gets the blanks they aren't castings any more due to the processing involved. Mostly that processing refines the grain size in the metal and adds internal stresses. Kind of like what we're doing with the various Heat-Treat processes..... Such a narrow definition of what is a "real" race car. ;) [/QUOTE]
